Dispensing

Equipment Today’s manufacturing is evolving at a faster rate than ever before. More complex designs, new materials, and an increased focus on the environment can present manufacturers with many new assembly challenges. Whatever demands or challenges you face, Dymax is here to work with you and provide the dispensing solutions you need for a more efficient process and higher quality end product. Dymax manufactures high-grade, field-proven dispense systems that fit many manual and automated dispensing applications. These systems include various automatic and manual dispense systems, spray valves, and related components for seamless integration into your assembly process. Our dispensing systems are designed with features that eliminate common dispensing issues like material contamination, stringing at the dispense tip, and inaccurate flow control to help make your process as efficient as it can be. They’re built for long, reliable service life with little maintenance to reduce downtime and repair costs. For applications that require products outside our product offering, we partner with other leading dispensing companies to provide you with the best equipment for your process. This expands our dispensing resources while still providing all system components from a single supplier.

SYRINGE DISPENSERS

Powered & manual handheld syringe dispensers

Powered & Manual Syringe Dispensers Dymax syringe dispensers deliver accurate and consistent fluid deposits from pre-packed disposable syringes. By using a disposable syringe as the material reservoir, these dispensing systems eliminate the risk of material contamination during dispense and allow for quick and easy product changeover with no cleanup. These dispensers are simple to set up and operate and can be used to dispense a wide variety of low- to high-viscosity fluids. Dymax powered syringe dispensers can also be easily integrated into automated processes.

SD-100 DIGITAL SYRINGE DISPENSER

The SD-100 digital syringe dispenser accurately dispenses low-to-high viscosity materials from a syringe. Operators can quickly and easily set the system up for the required deposit size with the digital timer control and adjustable pressure gauge. The SD-100 is ideal for use as an operator work station and can also be integrated into an automated process by connecting an external signal to the system input. • • • •

STEPPER™ PIPETTES The Dymax Stepper™ is a simple to operate, repetitive dispensing pipette. With this pipette, users have the ability to set a specific dispense volume and repeat it over and over again with extreme accuracy. It utilizes a disposable, silicone-free, medical-grade syringe as its fluid reservoir and is designed so the reservoir never comes in contact with the operator’s hand, preventing adverse heat transfer which could influence the accuracy of the pipette. The pipette also eliminates fluid contamination by preventing fluids from coming in contact with the dispenser. The contaminate-free dispensing this pipette offers is ideal for lab applications or other work with sterile fluids. • • • •

HANDHELD DISPENSING SYSTEMS Easy to operate, ergonomic designs for handheld dispensing

Handheld & Mountable Dispensing Systems Dymax offers handheld and mountable dispensing systems for manual or automated dispensing processes. Our dispensing systems are available with disposable fluid path, diaphragm, needle, and spool valves. Needle Valves – Extreme Precision Dispensing Needle valves are designed to deliver precise dots or very fine beads of low- to medium-viscosity fluids. Dymax needle valves feature a stroke adjustment which allows for finetuning of the dispense volume and ensures precise and consistent deposits. Handheld and mountable models are available.

Disposable Fluid Path Valves – Contaminate-Free Dispensing Dymax disposable fluid path valves are uniquely engineered to prevent material contamination. The disposable fluid path carries materials from the material reservoir to the dispense tip, sealing fluids in the fluid path. This prevents the fluid from coming in contact with the valve’s inner components and ensures a contaminate-free dispensing process. The fluid path is easy to replace and requires minimal clean-up, allowing for rapid material changeover.

Spool Valves – Accuracy with Suck-Back Control Spool valves are ideal for automated dispensing systems and are designed to accurately dispense a variety of medium- to high-viscosity fluids. The valves’ accuracy comes from two main features: suck-back control and adjustable flow control. The suck-back feature assures consistent, stringless dispensing of tackier materials and prevents droplets from remaining on the dispense nozzle when using lower viscosity materials.

Diaphragm Valves – No Fluid Contamination with Less Maintenance Diaphragm valves are ideal for dispensing light-curable materials, solvent-based products, and reactive materials like cyanoacrylates and anaerobics because the internal design of the valve prevents fluid from coming in contact with the valve’s actuating components. This drastically minimizes valve maintenance and production down-time.

MODEL 200 HANDHELD DISPENSING SYSTEMS The Model 200 dispensing system features a manually-controlled valve which uses a unique floating diaphragm to achieve accurate dispensing. It’s wandstyle body is more ergonomic and the valve’s design allows for compatibility with a variety of low-to-medium viscosity fluids, including light-curable adhesives, cyanoacrylates, and anaerobic adhesives. • • •
